At that time, Madam Quartley and her niece had attended the gathering.
It just so happened that Madam Quartley's niece had taken a fancy to Matthew.
After that, Madam Quartley noticed Matthew as well.
Madam Quartley had wanted to bring Matthew and her niece together, but Matthew had rejected her advances.
Madam Quartley had tried matchmaking several times, but he had made it clear that he already had someone
else. Madam Quartley could only give up. This incident had been an interlude for Matthew.
In the following days, he had forgotten Madam Quartley.
If they hadn't met again on this day, Matthew wouldn't have been able to remember.
After listening to Matthew's words, Yesseca sighed deeply.
It was a small world.
Matthew and Madam Quartley had always been completely unrelated in her mind, but they actually knew each
other. She would never have expected Yesseca was about to speak when she suddenly felt that something
wasn't right.
She looked at Matthew, "You already had someone you liked ten years ago? Were you with Selina then?"
Was it possible that Matthew was with another woman at that time?
Matthew glanced at Yesseca with a faint smile. "Didn't Selina tell you that I'd already liked her since she was
sixteen?"
Yesseca was speechless.
Selina had not told her.
Perhaps she had told her, but Yesseca had forgotten.
After all, she had always been forgetful.
Yesseca's eyes were filled with envy. "You've liked her for such a long time? That's so romantic."
Matthew smiled.
He changed the topic again. "Is your relationship with Madam Quartley not good?"

Yesseca held her breath.
She said, "Matthew, you know?"
Matthew's eyes darkened slightly.
He had not known.
When Madam Quartley cover, he'd gotten a few suspicions. He did not expect it to be true.
Matthew thought for a moment, "Yesseca, remember, this is your life with Tremaine. Don't worry about what
others think. But if someone mistreats you, you must tell me. I'll help you."
Yesseca immediately shook her head and said, "Don't worry. No one is mistreating me. You should know that
Tremaine treatsvery well. If he treatswell, no one would dare to mistreat me." The reason why Yesseca
spoke so confidently was to reassure Matthew and not to let him worry.
Matthew thought about it. What Yesseca said made sense.
Tremaine was kind to Yesseca. No one would mistreat her.
He said, "Anyway, Yesseca, there is not only one person behind you. You have your sister and me. You have
strong support. Don't let yourself be mistreated." Warmth surged in Yesseca's heart.
Selina cout as well.
She asked, "What are you two talking about?"
Yesseca was just about to talk about how
Matthew and Madam Quartley knew each other, but she did not say anything in the end.
After all, the reason Matthew knew Madam Quartley was that she'd wanted to introduce her niece to Matthew.
What would happen if Selina felt jealous? Yesseca smiled. "Nothing, we were just chatting."
Selina held Yesseca's hand and said, "Well, Yesseca, we will head off soon. Take care in Nashaland. Give us a call
if you need anything."
Yesseca nodded. "Okay, and you must take care of yourself and the baby."
Tremaine returned not long after Selina and Matthew left.
Yesseca had been waiting for him to cback.
When he cback, she immediately asked, "Those girls this morning. You arranged for them to cover?"
At first, she had been confused. Why
ooo
did Tremaine suddenly arrange for sgirls to cover? But when she finally saw the video Preslie showed
her, she understood that Tremaine had been trying to distract her from thinking and not letting her know what
happened this morning.
Tremaine said, "I asked them to accompany you since you've been so lonely in Quartley Palace."
"No," Yesseca widened her eyes. "Tremaine, you were not thinking about that."
"Then what was | thinking?" Tremaine raised his brows.
Yesseca's eyes were filled with emotions.
Tremaine!
He was still pretending!
He had wanted to get rid of the problem without her being aware of it!
Yesseca couldn't help but take a step forward. Suddenly, she threw herself into Tremaine's arms and wrapped her
arms around his waist. Tremaine was surprised.
Suddenly, a warm body fell into his arms, making Tremaine's breath halt.
Yesseca said, "Tremaine, since we're
together, | think we're one. No
matter what kind of hardship or setbacks, we'll have to face them together, right? If that's the case, why didn't
you tellabout the problems you had? You ever sent sgirls over to distract me. You wanted to solve it all
by yourself, didn't you?"
Tremaine darkened his eyes slightly and asked, "You knew?"
"Of course," Yesseca said. "How could | not know when things had escalated to such a big extent? I'm not a fool."
Tremaine subconsciously said, "I think you're dumb, so that was why you would not know."

Yesseca was speechless.
She took a deep breath.
She was not mad!
Many people from Nashaland had opposed her being with Tremaine Tremaine turned the tide and made such a
speech in front of everyone. He was good to her. She couldn't be angry with this man.
Yesseca faintly said, "If you really think I'm dumb, then let it be."
Tremaine looked serious. "It's not that I think so, but it's a fact."
Yesseca was speechless.
She took another deep breath.
She must hold her anger.
Tremaine suddenly said, "It should be your friend who told you, right? Because all you know to do is to eat and
sleep. You don't know about what is happening outside." Yesseca did not reply.
Even if she took a deep breath, she couldn't bear it anymore!
She stepped heavily on Tremaine's foot.
Tremaine was taken aback.
He furrowed his thick eyebrows. "Why are you stepping on me?"
"Because you deserve it!"
"Why?"
"Because you said | was dumb!"
"Is it not a fact that you are dumb?"
"Why is it a fact?"
"Of course it is," Tremaine said seriously. "I thought so the moment | saw you."
Although Matthew told Tremaine that he should praise Yesseca, and he had thought about it, still...
